James 3:5

The Darby Translation DBY

New International Version NIV

5 Thus also the tongue is a little member, and boasts great things. See how little a fire, how large a wood it kindles!

5 Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark.
